California roads kill 44,000 deer a year, UC Davis estimates. Highway 50 is a hotspot

Vehicles kill an estimated 44,000 mule deer and 780 mountain lions on California roads each year, according to a new UC Davis report that identified hundreds of wildlife collision hotspots across the state, including a stretch of Highway 50 in El Dorado County. The 2026 California Roadkill Hotspots Report, released Tuesday by the university’s Road Ecology Center, found that wildlife collisions remained a persistent problem despite growing investments in crossings designed to help animals move safely across highways. Researchers argued that California needs more roadside fencing to prevent animals from entering traffic, particularly where existing bridges and culverts could provide safe passage beneath highways. “But just building a crossing doesn’t mean wildlife will use it — they’ll try to cross wherever they are. Fencing is the answer to reducing roadkill, not crossings alone,” said Fraser Shilling, director of the UC Davis Road Ecology Center. Thousands of animals killed on California roads Researchers estimated that vehicles killed more than 44,000 mule deer annually on California freeways, highways and major paved roads between 2016 and 2024. That represented nearly 10% of the state’s estimated 475,000 mule deer and more than four times the number reported killed by hunters in 2024. The report
